Is that NFS-mounted? I remember having similar problems
when we had the database volume mounted via NFS (from a
NetApp filer) with the "intr" mount option. If I'm not
confusing things, then removing that option solved the
problem for us. Also, do not use the "soft" mount option.
Never ever.

If you're not using NFS -- then sorry, I have no idea.
